Love him or hate him but I'll take him over Dick Vitale or Jay Bilas all day every day. Anyway...
Dan Dakich...

Love dakich. Calls it like he sees it. Nothing wrong with that.
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, hes the best in the business. So kind to our program and fans. Hell, I’d like to adopt the man. Make him a wildcat. Anyone that doesn’t like him, is completely irrational, and just hates anyone associated with a rival school.
As pathetic as it is, I agree. and I really don't care for him.
He's lovin' on Calipari right now...saying there's more to it than rolling a ball out on to the floor. I feel like I need to go and take a shower but that Hoosier lover gets a [thumb2] from me.
He’s calling the game. Some people just can’t be pleased.
Dakichis has distinguished himself among his contemporaries with his brutal candor coupled with his basketball insight. Would prefer him over all others.
He calls a great game. It's the stupid stuff between games the world would be better if without.
Excellent job and better than that duo we usually get Farnham and whoever that other tool is. Also better than Bilas and Dukie V.
Deep down in he hates U.K. like bilas in the beginning his praise is overwhelming but the real dackich will tear his head in a couple years
I guess we'll have to give him credit for working so hard not to let it show for now then.
Did anyone catch his comment on Tom Crean? Something along the lines of “Tom Crean is as good as there is... in the booth”
I take it you aren’t on Twitter. The man is either schizophrenic or has someone else sends his tweets. If you go by just his analysis during games, he’s one of the best, I agree. But he has been a pompous blowhard on Twitter numerous times. Something isn’t right with him.
His pattern. Troll UK on twitter, brown nose UK doing the game, troll later.
Love or hate their opinions, Bilas and Dakich are both great on calling games.
When we agree Dakich is one of the best out there it shows how bad the commentator business is.
Perfect assessment of Dakich on Twitter. He’s a major troll. Infuriated me so much I got baited into responding to him and then he blocked me; “my red badge of courage”
Nope. Don’t have Twitter. Just hear his knowledge for the game, putting the refs in their place, and praise for our fans and program.
That's where I DISAGREE DD..CTC needs to be on IU's sidelines!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hate the dude but he is knowledgeable of the game at least. Vitale makes it on enthusiasm alone and it gets annoying. I miss my man jimmy dykes.
Dakich is okay when he's calling the game, but I prefer Bilas. Vitale is not in the running. The worst ever.
I don’t do Twitter so I can’t comment on what he does on there but I’ve really grown to like the guy as an analyst.
His voice is annoying, but he seems to be fair and honest. Doesnt seem to bash (that ive heard) or slobber too much.
However, i disagree with him about Ulis' senior year. Tyler did not get better during his senior season. Smh...

He is AWFUL with a capital A. Only fans that like him are he ones who’s team he pumps sunshine up their...... He is wrong most of the time when he talks about players “Miles Bridges is not skilled”. Then acts likes he knows what players are thinking. The same players who are decades younger and most of a different race and back ground lol.
On top of all that he’s a hypocrite. He constantly talks about players who transfer are quitters and want the easy way out but when his son did it he says “ well you all don’t know his situation”

At least he talks about the game we're watching
Why, they were giving UK props being ranked # 7, post season team, besides Dakich hit over .400 at Indiana one season.
Look at the bright side, it pisses IU fans off the worst way when he clowns them and praises us. That’s a win all day.
Best color guy in college basketball the last 5 years.

He's fine lately after he stopped getting drunk at home and playing on twitter.
